For last month’s book club I had to make a southern food to fit the theme of the night. Whenever my family goes to Florida (though it’s been many years for me) we make a point to “test out” the key lime pie at basically every restaurant we go to. We are always on the search for the best one, though none are bad.
I thought I should try making key lime pie cupcakes. Please note – I understand that in no way should this recipe be called “key lime” maybe I should just name it “lime cupcakes” but for some reason that doesn’t sound appetizing to me. Take a look at my version of super simple key lime pie cupcakes.
Strawberry parfaits are incredibly easy and fast desserts to make but can still pass as fancy in a pinch. If you need a “dessert for dummies” recipe this is the one.
Strawberry parfaits are kid-friendly, chocolate-free, and make a perfect Valentine’s Day treat for anyone. Class it up by putting the parfait in a wine glass and adding a strawberry fan to up the ante.
I am not a huge fan of Thanksgiving foods. Turkey? Take it or leave it. Mashed potatoes? Meh. But the desserts, that is something this holiday got right. From delicious pies and cakes to decadent tarts and cheesecakes this roundup of Thanksgiving desserts has it all. Choose one (or more!) to impress your friends and family.
Happy Thanksgiving!
